'Being Bucky' to Play Majestic

"Being Bucky," the affectionate documentary about seven students who portray the UW-Madison and state of Wisconsin mascot Bucky Badger, will open Friday at the Majestic Theater in Brookfield, according to the film's producer John Fromstein.

In its debut in Madison last week "Being Bucky" beat all films at the box office, except "Fast and Furious" and the new "Hannah Montana" film Fromstein said.

"Being Bucky" was voted the audience's favorite film earlier this month at the Wisconsin Film Festival in Madison. It also opens in Green Bay this Friday.
